Ronald Reagan received 50.7% of the popular vote, and won the presidential election by collecting 91% of the electoral votes. This big margin of difference shows how the electoral college does not accurately show what the people want. States like Idaho that have a population of over 1.5 million people will only get 4 electoral votes, making their opinion in the presidential election extremely small. George C. Edwards states in Document D that “the electoral college violates political equality.…

From all things that I have learned regarding the Manifest Destiny, it was a horrible thought for one people in particular, the Indians. The School House Rocks video entitled, Elbow Room – Manifest Destiny, gives us a very PG version of this concept of Manifest Destiny. Basically, with everyone settled in the East of the United States things were starting to get a little cramped. Most people saw their opportunity for growth, not only agricultural wise but also financially, in the West and…

When using three rhetoric tenets in writing, writers can create a very persuasive argument. By using ethos, logos and pathos, an argument can be made stronger and get more attention from the audience. This is seen in Eric Schlosser’s Fast Food Nation in which he uses ethos, logos, and pathos widely to better display his argument. By using these rhetorical ideas, his writing is very persuasive and makes a solid argument towards the fast food industry in the United States. The use of ethos is…

Looking over the United States use of energy, there have been millions and millions of dollars spent on energy. Energy is needed to provide the basic needs such as: food, production, transportation, housing manufacturing, construction, and many other things. We depend on so many things, especially in the U.S. Our biggest energy source are the fossil fuels and we are no longer limiting the amounts of how much we use up. I would say we have reached a certain peak in which we have used up all of…

they’d change their minds. If they were to join me on the river, they’d hear the sound of motor boats traveling up the water, and they’d smell the engine exhaust and hear the laughter of the fishermen. They’d be able to look across the river to the Idaho side and see a white pick-up truck parked in the mudflats next to the water. They’d see the family casting their fishing poles and hear them joking as the dad yells “fish” and yank his pole upward only to discover that the fish took his…

one of the most beautiful places in America and maybe even the world. There is no doubt about why annually, millions of tourists worldwide flock to visit the park and admire its enchancing 2,219,789 acres of beauty and wildlife. Located in Wyoming, Idaho, and Montana, the park is famous for waterfalls, mountains, geysers, and even hotsprings, In fact, this place is known for having half of the world's hydrothermal features. It also is home to tons of animals like elk, bison, mule, deer, bighorn…

is still thought to be a medical super plant. Just the smuggling alone is a 300 million dollar industry and this is slowly on the rise every year with more and more states legalizing it for recreational purposes as well as medical purposes. Even in Idaho where it is illegal to have marijuana teens are discovering it is easier and easier to get it and conceal it even going as far as smoking it in local high school bathrooms because they have no worry of being caught or getting into much trouble…

In 2013, the revenues for the digital service arm of MLB were $650M. Every team owns an equal share of MLBAM. League-wide merchandising/licensing — If a video game has the Pirates, if a Cutch jersey is sold in Idaho, the Pirates will get a cut of that MLB’s Investment Portfolio — When the Expos were owned by MLB, then sold to the Lerner family to become the Washington Nationals, the profit from the sale (about $330M profit) was parked into a hedge fund in 2006…

In Idaho, the testing fee is one hundred dollars for all five tests, but in other states it can be even higher. In Minnesota, the cost is one hundred seventy-one dollars per student per year. Even though it may seem like an insignificant amount, that, multiplied…

Mom wakes up early starts making yummy home made crescent rolls. Which I love making every year now at Thanksgiving and Christmas. While the rolls are raising which takes two hours. She stuffs the turkey and starts cooking it. Later she makes mash potato's, green beans, cream corn and bakes the rolls. Mom takes a break while food cooks. We all just talk or watch movies and play games. It’s the best day to make an excuse to stuff your face. We usually eat around two in the afternoon so we can…
